Summer Fun With Team UCLan Equestrian
Lauren, riding Poppy
Our second gymkhana of the year was a huge success and the best so far! After rediculous amounts of laughter, cheering and shouting, everyone had a fantastic time.
Congratulations to those who won their classes!
The end of the year is now upon us and the gymkhana signified the last riding session for the current year.
We'd like to thank all who have participated throughout the year and made it one to remember. Good luck to everyone in exams. Have a good summer (with lots of riding, hopefully!)
SEE YOU ALL IN SEPTEMBER FOR THE SPORTS FAIR

Drama as B-Team Captain is Injured
Amanda Snelling, B-Team Captain 2011-2012, suffered a fall from 15.2hh Welsh Section D, Jenson after a battle of wills. Unfortunately, after hitting the ground, Amanda was unable to move without excruciating pain and an ambulence was called. Following medical investigation it was discovered that Amanda had broken her humerus - ironic - and had to undergo surgery to pin the bone back into place before having to have a cast for 6 weeks. Of course, this means that Amanda cannot ride.
"I am devastated that I can't compete alongside the other B-Team members," says Amanda, "but I'm still able to stand at the sidelines and give moral support." Jeannie Mott-Philip is to be Amanda's replacement team member.
We wish Amanda a speedy recovery.
